About the Gong DJ Battle…In 2006, weary of the corporate competitions the DJ battle scene had to offer, 1995 DMC World Champ, Roc Raida didn’t complain like some namby-pamby. He made up his own battle!

Roc Raida’s Gong DJ Battle is so maniacal, so exacting, that only the most bravehearted of DJs will enter. It’s raw head to head battle action combined with pure hilarity.

Not only did Raida invite the most battle scarred DJ alumni to man the gong as judges, competitors were subjected to the ranting and inside jokes of Lord Sear; instigation from Lord Finesse; rumpus making by hype man DJ FatFingaz plus DJ Boogie Blind chiming in with timely samples to further add to the ruckus.

Each DJ has only one minute to showcase the talent that is going to keep him/her in the battle. Only 8 DJs selected by the judges can advance. The rest will probably get gonged… Any DJ from anywhere in the world can enter.
